Abstract: A film cooling structure formed in a component wall of a turbine engine and a method of making the film cooling structure. The film cooling structure includes a plurality of individual diffusion sections ( 20 ) formed in the wall, each diffusions section including a single cooling passage ( 42 ) for directing cooling air toward a protuberance ( 30 ) of a wall defining the diffusion section. The film cooling structure may be formed with a masking template including apertures defining shapes of a plurality of to-be- formed diffusion sections in the wall. A masking material ( 76 ) can be applied to the wall into the apertures in the masking template so as to block outlets of cooling passages exposed through the apertures. The masking template can be removed and a material may be applied on the outer surface of the wall such that the material defines the diffusion sections once the masking material is removed.

Abstract: The present disclosure is generally related to a method of mitigating or treating brain dysfunction. More specifically, the method relates to a method of stimulating neuroplasticity in brain tissue including a method of stimulating neuroplasticity in relatively healthy brain tissue and driving the neuroplasticity to improve or enhance function in adjacent, anatomically-related, or otherwise associated dysfunctional brain tissue. The relatively healthy brain tissue is associated with suitably functioning brain functions, which may be used as brain tools. Non-healthy or dysfunction brain tissue means that it is not functioning to the normally expected standard and would be associated with target brain functions. Once the target brain functions have been identified, brain tools are chosen and from there, sensorimotor stimuli are selected. A  method for measuring a neurological disorder is also disclosed, wherein questions associated with brain functions are answered. These results are then compared to a baseline or previous results.

Abstract: Apparatus is disclosed for preparing a hot mix comprising aggregate and bitumen. The apparatus comprises a cylindrical vessel [16] incorporating a mixing chamber [42] provided with a rotating paddle assembly [SO] for mixing aggregate and bitumen loaded into the mixing chamber. The vessel also incorporates a heating chamber [44] located below, and separated from, the mixing chamber by a dome shaped separating element [46a, 46b], the centre of which is located at a higher level than its periphery. The heating chamber has a lower part [72] with a diameter that is less than that of its upper part [102]. A blower [93] is provided to force air into the lower part through a horizontally disposed passage [92] in which an oil [90] or gas burner is located for heating the air. The axis [?'] of the passage is offset from the vertical axis [X] of the heating chamber. The arrangement causes the heated air to spiral upwardly and outwardly [98] as it passes, first through the lower part [72] and then through the upper [102] of the heating chamber, traversing the separating element before exiting through apertures [56] disposed about the periphery of the separating element. The mix of aggregate and bitumen in the mixing chamber is heated by the heat transferred from the air as it passes over the separating element The rotary motion of the air is beneficial in distributing the heat uniformly over the separating element.

Abstract: The present invention provides a flux-cored welding wire comprising a shell having a tubular cavity, which accommodates flux. The shell is made of 400 series stainless steels. The deposited metal formed after the welding using the flux-cored welding wire of the present invention has more uniform chemical compositions. Because the loss of chromium during the transition to the deposited metal is less than 0.1%, recourses is saved and welding cost is reduced. The filling ratio of the flux-cored welding wire of the present invention is 5%-25% (preferably 10%-20%). As a result, not only the stability of the compositions in the flux is increased, but also the disadvantages to the manufacture process caused by high filling ratio are avoided. The flux-cored welding wire of the present invention will not be rusty even after it is exposed to the air for a long time. Therefore, it has lower requirements for storage condition, provides longer storage time and reduces manufacturing cost.

Abstract: Architecture that identifies and learns repeated user behavior (habits) related to routes of travel and points of interest. Once learned, the habits of an individual can be used to make an algorithm more efficient, and hence, the user experience of an application more effective and enjoyable. The capability to more accurately infer user behavior based on user history can be employed to operate (e.g., power down or place in components standby to conserve power) user device resources in a more efficient manner. It can be identified that a user has deviated from a routine route that has associated points of interest to a new route that has associated new points of interest. Once identified, the original set of points of interest for the routine route is then updated with new points of interest. The identification of fixed routes can be determined dynamically as well as deviation from a fixed route.

Title: Methods and compositions for silencing genes using artificial micrornas
Inventor: KUREK ITZHAK
IPC: C12N15/63
Filed: 2012-10-26
Abstract: Methods and compositions are provided that employ microRNA (miRNA) that, when expressed in a plant cell, is capable of reducing the level of mRNA of a target sequence (i.e. endogenous sequence) without reducing the level of mRNA of one or more closely related sequences. While miRNAs can be designed with specificity for a particular target sequence, the instant application demonstrates that a miRNA can specifically silence a target sequence without silencing a closely related sequence having high sequence identity to the target sequence. In certain embodiments, an endogenous target sequence can be suppressed with a recombinant miRNA expression construct without silencing a recombinant polynucleotide of interest having a sequence closely related to the target sequence. Such methods and compositions employ recombinant miRNA expression constructs which produce a 21-nt miRNA. Transgenic plant cells, plants and seeds incorporating miRNA expression constructs and recombinant polynucleotide constructs comprising polynucleotides of interest are also provided.
